Putussibau Durian Abundance
If you travel up the Kapuas River to the small city of Putussibau, you will find a place where durian is so abundant that no one knows what to do with it. Durian is boring. It’s everywhere. It’s not expensive. There’s really too much of it around. And it’s really good quality. What a problem […]
Sabah Agriculture Park Durian & Fruit Collection
I go back to the Sabah Agriculture Park in Tenom every year. It’s one of my favorite places on Planet Earth. Where else can you find 400 species of rare tropical fruit trees, all in one place, without tromping through the mosquito swamps for weeks to find them? Only here, in this beautifully manicured lawn […]
Travel Lawas Durian Guide
There was only one reason we Durian-Obsessed peeps got interested in Lawas — Durian. This tiny little sliver of Sarawak is famous for it. But, once we started hanging out in this sleepy, tourist-free town, we realized that it’s really a beautiful area with plenty of cool nature-things to do between all the durian snacking. […]
DurianBB, the New Hipster Kota Kinabalu Durian Cafe
The Durian scene is changing. It’s like this: Once upon a time, if you wanted a cup of coffee in Malaysia, you went to Uncle’s kopitiam with the ceiling fans and weird black streaks on the walls and overly bright red plates piled high with otherworldly succulent noodles. But now, if you want a cup […]
Up the Rajang: Belaga Durian Guide
Belaga is a very small town on the Rajang River, the longest river in Sarawak. It’s further than Sibu, or Song, or even Kapit. Past the Pelagus Rapids along about 120km of brown, ever narrowing river, you’ll find your way to Belaga. So far from the coast, I imagined Belaga to be up in the […]
The Gadong Night Market Durian Guide
Brunei’s Gadong Night Market is one of the most reliable places for a one-hit Borneo durian spree. It’s a huge market, with a wealthy clientele thanks to Brunei’s petroleum industry and strong currency, and durians are shipped in from all over Malaysia. The magic of this is that at Gadong Night Market, you can get […]
Durio kinabaluensis (Tupoloh) at Pasar Durian Ranau
“This was definitely NOT here two weeks ago,” Simon said emphatically. It was as if the stretch of durian stalls, the parking lot filled with open-bed trucks loading and unloading durian, had appeared overnight. Maybe the Durio kinabaluensis had appeared just for us. Finding Pasar Durian Ranau We were on our way to the Big […]
Merarap Hot Spring Durian Farm | Lawas, Sarawak
Does relaxing in a natural hot spring in the jungles of Borneo, munching durian under a black and star speckled sky, sound like a dream come true? Yeah, that’s what I was thinking too when I decided to travel 2 1/2 hours into the Iran mountain range to visit the Merarap Hot Spring Lodge Durian […]
